Goddard: Father of the Space Age

Mar 22

Space‑themed event at Hanover Theatre & Conservatory to celebrate the 100th anniversary of humanity’s first modern rocket launch—achieved by Worcester’s own Dr. Robert H. Goddard, the “Father of the Space Age.” Will include presentations from scientists and astronauts in person and from across the USA—our “Today’s Goddards” who have carried his torch and pushed the boundaries of human knowledge—to help inspire our “Tomorrow’s Goddards” who, like Goddard himself, dare to dream big and envision an extraordinary future. 16:30-18:00 EDT; free but RSVP required.

Special guest is American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics President Dan Hastings.
